Massive new study aims to find best way to save newborns who Can't breathe
NCT ID NCT07150923
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two training and support strategies to help hospital staff use a breathing device called a supraglottic airway (SA) during newborn resuscitation. Over 36,000 newborns and their care teams across many hospitals will take part. The goal is to see which approach leads to more frequent and earlier use of the SA when a baby needs help breathing, potentially improving outcomes.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Supraglottic airway device and implementation strategies (educational materials, local champions, training, starter packs, plus external facilitation)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could identify the most effective way to train hospital staff to use supraglottic airways, potentially improving survival and outcomes for newborns who need breathing help at birth.
- What could go wrong
- This is an implementation study, not a test of a new treatment. It focuses on how well hospitals adopt a device already in use, so it may not directly lead to new therapies. Results may vary across different hospitals and settings.
